00:20Sa ceremonial turnover ng 2026 National Expenditure Program,
00:25kapwa tiniyak ni House Speaker Martin Romualdez at Budget Secretary Amina Pangandaman
00:30na masusinilang babantayan ang deliberasyon ng pambansang pondo para sa susunod na taon
00:35para matiyak na tunay itong tutugon sa pangailangan ng mga Pilipino.
00:40Nagkakahalaga ng 6.793 trillion pesos ang panukalang pondo para sa 2026
00:47na 7.4% na mas mataas kumpara sa budget ngayong taon.
00:51Alinsunod sa konstitusyon, nangunguna pa rin sa mga kagawarang may pinakamataas na alokasyon
00:57ang Department of Education.
00:59Sinusundan niya ng Department of Public Works and Highways,

01:07Department of Agriculture, Department of Social Welfare and Development,
01:11Department of Transportation, Judiciary,
01:13Department of Labor and Employment, at Department of Migrant Workers.
01:17The net is more than just numbers on paper.
01:21It is the government's plan to make the vision of Bagong Pilipinas real.
01:26We will ensure the transparency, accountability are embodied in our agenda for prosperity.
01:33Dahil sa Bagong Pilipinas, mahalaga ang buhay ng bawat Pilipino.
01:38Ayon kay House Committee on Appropriations Chair Michaela Swan Singh,
01:42sa lunes agad na nilang sisimulan ang pagtalakay sa panukalang pondo.
01:46Mismong si Speaker Romualdez naman ang nagbigay katiyakan na may mga reporma na silang gagawin
01:51para maging mas bukas sa publiko ang deliberasyon.
01:54First, we will remove the small committee that collated institutional amendments.
02:02Bukas ang talakayan, lot ng amendments, alam ng mamamayan.
02:08Second, we will open the bicameral conference committee on the budget to the public and to the media.
02:16Isa sa mga mainit na isyo ngayon ukol sa budget ang umani ilang palpak na flood control projects ng gobyerno.
02:22Sa ilanin ng 2026 proposed budget, may alokasyon pa rin para rito,
02:27pero mas mahigpit na ang gagawing pagbosisi ng mga mambabatas.
02:30The total is 274.926 to be exact.
02:37Yung 272.333, it's under the Department of Public Works.
02:44While the remaining 2.593 billion po is under the Metro Manila Development Authority.
02:51We will make sure that the flood control projects will be focused mostly on those areas
02:59kasi yun na nga yun na-identify as the most flood prone.
03:03We will also coordinate with the respective RDCs and the respective regions
03:07because there should be like an overall flood mitigation plan.
03:12Ilan pa sa mga tiniyak ng DBM na pinaglaanan nila ng kaukulang pondo,
03:17ang 20 bigas meron na program, Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program
03:20at iba pang mahalagang programa ng pamahalaan.
03:24Sa panig ni House Majority Leader Sandro Marcos,
03:26siniguro niyang personal din niyang tututukan ang budget process,
03:30alinsunod na rin sa direktiba ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.
03:34I will not allow a budget on the floor to pass that is a mutation of the NEP
03:39or that has become too far off from the NEP.
03:43As majority leader, I won't allow it to happen.
03:46Pagtitiyak ng mga kongresista,
03:48lagi't lagi kapakanan ng taong bayan at ng Pilipinas ang kanilang prioridad.
